Safe, Code-Compliant Gas Fitting for Your Home

From new gas line installs to appliance hookups and leak repairs, we handle every connection with care and to code.

Gas Work Done Right the First Time
What We Do

Gas Work Done Right the First Time

Gas fitting is not a DIY job. Every line, fitting, and connection has to meet provincial code, hold pressure, and vent safely — and that takes a licensed gas fitter who knows the work inside and out.

We install, repair, and service natural gas and propane systems for furnaces, fireplaces, ranges, BBQs, pool heaters, and more. Every job is permitted where required, pressure-tested, and left clean.

  • New gas line installation and extensions
  • Appliance hookups and conversions
  • Leak detection and pressure testing
  • Propane and natural gas systems
  • Permits and code-compliant work

Gas Fitting FAQ

Common Questions About Gas Work

In BC, a gas permit is required for most installations, alterations, and appliance connections. We handle the permit application as part of the job so you don't have to deal with the paperwork. DIY gas work without a permit can void insurance and create serious safety risks.

Common signs include the smell of rotten eggs, hissing sounds near lines or appliances, dead vegetation over a buried line, or a higher-than-normal gas bill. If you suspect a leak, leave the building, don't use any switches or phones inside, and call your gas utility's emergency line first — then call us for the repair.

In many cases, yes. Most ranges, furnaces, and fireplaces can be converted with a manufacturer conversion kit and an adjustment to orifices and regulators. We'll confirm your model is convertible before quoting the work.

Cost depends on the distance from the meter, the type of pipe required, wall and floor access, and the appliance being fed. A short run to a nearby range is very different from a long run to a detached garage. We provide a written quote after seeing the site.

Yes. We run dedicated gas lines to permanent BBQs, fire tables, patio heaters, and outdoor kitchens, including the quick-connect fittings so you can easily disconnect the appliance when needed.

A straightforward appliance hookup often takes a few hours. Running a new line through finished walls, or installing a fireplace, can take a full day or more. We'll give you a realistic timeline with your quote.

Shadd and his team are absolutely wonderful and did a great job. I needed a basement sink plumbed and new washer dryer hookups and they were able to get it done in short order, kept everything tidy and were super easy to deal with. They knew my budget and worked with me to stay within it and gave me everything I needed. They are very professional, skilled and their prices are more than reasonable. I would highly recommend them to everyone!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY US! 4 weeks ago, our hot water and air conditioning quit working on the same day! I called and spoke with the AMAZING Denise, she had Alex out at our shop within the day and he had everything diagnosed and parts ordered, not long after the first appointment, he had our hot water back in working order and then our A/C was repaired after that! Anytime we have had any issues, they have been very prompt to show up on the same day and Alex fixed it all! Such amazing and friendly services! You all have a forever client with Integra Tire and our team moving forward! Thank You!

Plumbing problems are never fun, but we appreciated how Stevenson Mechanical handled the replacement of our sump pump --from booking the appointment to the on-time arrival of our plumber and his friendly, competent service (which included persevering through some unexpected issues). Thank you for your expertise and excellent service!

This company is great! We needed to have our air conditioning unit disconnected and moved temporarily as we were getting our backyard patio redone. They were able to accommodate our last minute request, they completed the work quickly and got our unit reconnected just in time to beat the heat ! I would highly recommend them!
